Mokena, IL – May 23, 2017 –

G&L Roofing of Mokena, Illinois, has received the most prestigious contractor award GAF offers: The GAF President’s Club Award. This highly coveted award recognizes G&L Roofing as one of the “elite of the elite” residential roofing contractors in the United States.

GAF is North America’s largest roofing manufacturer, and only GAF Master Elite(R) Contractors can compete for its residential President’s Club Award. To qualify for this award, a residential roofing contractor must meet specific criteria in at least one out of three different pathways: the Performance pathway, where contractors focus on giving their property owners the best possible service, quality, and protection; the Reliability pathway, where the contractor has a long history of offering their customers the best quality and protection; and the Service pathway, where contractors consistently offer their customers the best protection available in the marketplace.

G&L Roofing has been a GAF Master Elite(R) Contractor since 1999; the company received the President’s Club Award due to its excellent performance in 2016. To become a Master Elite(R) Contractor–a status that less than 2% of roofing contractors nationwide are able to achieve–a candidate must demonstrate proper licensing, maintain insurance (in states that require it), have a proven reputation, and show commitment to ongoing professional training.

Attention to detail, quality products, and superb craftsmanship are the keys to G&L Roofing’s ability to ensure that a customer’s home makes a striking impression, adding great curb appeal to the neighborhood.

The company goes beyond the basics, with its innovative maintenance programs, extended warranties, and superior customer service.

The company’s other exterior services include vinyl siding, soffits, skylights, Energy Star(R) windows, and custom-manufactured seamless gutters.
